Cooking Mama 3 announced

505 Games will publish Cooking Mama 3 on DS across Europe this Christmas.

The game will boast over 80 recipes, 200 mini-games and a four-player multiplayer from one cart.

“Mama provides a truly unique gameplay experience which can’t be replicated and always delivers,” commented Ian Howe, Managing Director of 505 Games. “Cooking Mama remains our most successful series to date and we know Cooking Mama 3 will only serve to build upon its existing legacy.”

The title will also offer two new game modes: ‘What dish can you make’, in which players choose ingredients from a list and Mama will come up with a tasty recipe containing them both for you to cook; and ‘Lets go shopping’, which challenges your memory as Mama sends you out to the shops with a list of ingredients to buy.
